It could have an unobtanium built trans or motor with unicorn gears and pistons, Will would break it.

I can be pretty happy having a "fast" car, but not having the "Fastest" car. There's always going to be someone that's faster. The problem is that "fast" is a relative term and what once felt fast no longer does once you go faster!

Yep.. that's a good lesson to learn.

I'd also like a true sports car for a change, rather than an amped up passenger car.

I mean think about it, even as built as your car is it still has no chance against a stock C6 Z06. That's pretty impressive considering how modded your car is!
Bringing this thread back alive lol! But have to agree with Steve, although the vette I have sitting in my garage isn't a Z06, it's a C6 with some very minor mods and tune. The cars are very impressive and simply fun to drive!

It's all about your resources. My car is my daily beater so I'm not interested in modding it too much. I have other things to waste my time and money on, like vacations, my house, and playing with my old cars. My Mustang looks good, runs good, is fun as hell to drive, and has cold a/c so I'm pretty satisfied with it.

If I had a retarded amount of money like SW or Mike Kelly I might chase four-digit horsepower or Texas mile records. But I don't, so I'm not going to get caught up in chasing the Joneses. It's crazy but I'm happy being slow!

This is why I have a daily then the fun cars to play around with. That way when they break down I still have a means of transportation. Although I did just ordered a shifter and custom knob for the daily. If anyone has driven a GTO then they know what I mean when I say the Shifter/knob is absolute garbage when it comes to driving spirited.

Daily driver is almost a must have if you are going to mod the hell out of your vehicle.

I buy my cars to drive them. Modding is a fun factor to me as I like most any sports car owner is a speed junky. Since I like to drive my cars too I want to be able to drive them. I think there is a fine line between modding and going extreme. If it requires my car to sit in the shop for months and months on end I'm out.

Same here, I don't want to buy a brand new car so it can sit in a garage. This is my DD, the other car's a spare, not the other way around.
